PG mentioned on his podcast something about wanting a certain style/method of play---would it be Ime's... PG represented by CAA, Houston just helped CAA-Nova-Knicks acquire Mikal [NY would've been no.1 to get PG] KD is close friends/played with both Ime and Royal---our Rockets' coaches
I voted that they would, but I pray it doesn’t happen because it would mean probably giving up 3 of our core and draft assets.
Pass, they would want us not the other way around. We're in a great position for the future. Think long term rather than short term.
Well Ine ain’t running a complicated or even unique offense that’s predicated on passing so I’m sure both those ISO’ kings would love it here.
Would be monumentally stupid to gut our core to add two old and aging players whose injuries are stacking up. How many times must teams make this mistake? They'll come here with no passion or drive, get hurt, then we'll be rebuilding again. I'd rather fail with the guys we have then succeed with those two because that success will be nothing more than a 2nd round exit at best.
"Send Durant to China" ---- after averaging 27ppg on 52/41/86 shooting splits and 63% TS??? LOL Clutchfans.
What if it was Spyda & KD wanted Htown? Adams + Jalen Green + draft capital to CLE for Spyda Brooks + Landale + Tate + draft capital to PHX for KD Keep #3 pick (Shep) Use MLE on Jalen Smith FVV - Shep Spyda - Amen KD - Cam Bari - Tari Sengawd - Jalen Smith Once again 4 top players (incl. 2 champs) according to various metrics with strong bench. Conceivable... not impossible. IJS Edit: to answer your question, I bet Ime wants both of those guys
the other funny thing is not wanting Durant because he’s too old…meanwhile would entertain PG, the significantly worse player, who will be turning 35 next season
The phrase, "something old, something new" comes to mind, but I don't hate this depending on what the draft capital is. Just not sure these guys meshed together get us to the promised land. This is a risky approach, but certainly gives us some firepower. With that said, I've never been a fan of Mitchell, nor KD, so I'll have to adapt.
Just a thought... I agree with you WHOLEHEARTEDLY about having to adapt. Now if the Rox are in championship contention I will adapt a LOT faster
Only superstar I want is Giannis pg , KD … neither of those guys are doing the dirty work . pretty sweet deal to make 50 million and get to play on one side of the court . no deal
I don't want either but KD would obviously fit better because of his shooting and length. I would be OK if it was a handful of picks and say Jabari/Tari, but I would not be OK with loosing Sengun, Jalen, Amen or Whitmore.
